Edward Paredes is a relief pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers. In 2018 he struck out 8 batters over 7.2 innings across 15 appearances, going 2-0. His ERA of 5.87 was 41.5% higher than the league average of 4.15. Stripping out defence, his 5.64 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 34.0% of swings (14.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 6.1% of the batters he faced and struck out 24.2%. His -0.1 dbWAR is built from that FIP rather than runs allowed, so it credits him for what he controls and not for the defence behind him.

How these are computed

wOBA uses linear weights measured from this season's own play-by-play rather than published constants, and wRC+ is park-adjusted against that same league. dbWAR is our own open implementation — not fWAR or bWAR — and the full derivation, including its simplifications, is on the methodology page.
